hello,
Don't mean to moan but it seems i'm stuck w problem after pro.
The range has no coolant loss,no air in the system,coolant level on the cold mark.when the car is at idle with aircon switched on the temp gauge rises till the 1st mark above half then the 2 elec fans speed up then the gauge moves to 1 oclock position and stays there,the vc is engaged at the high speed and the gauge won't rise 2 red nor go down.when i switch off the ac the temp falls down 2 half and the elec fans turn off.i have blown air like rave says to the rad from engine side and still the same.i have noticed that the vc when moved in and out of the engine that there is a play in it or some sort of a gap (not water pump moving) the fan from the clutch like 2mms gap but it is engaging 2 high speed and howling.also i have noticed tht my heater doesn't blow hot air but i doubt that even if it is blocked tht it'll cause overheating.water circulation was tested and it is ok.the outside temperature was 41 celsius,was it coz of that?is it normal 4 p38 to have the temp at 1 o'clock?on severe hot weather?should i replace the thermostat even if it is working properly or just start w the vc fan replacement and c?
Please help.
